My Project

Many students struggle with writing due to lack of guidance or fear of mistakes. Writing with proper grammar and punctuation is a foundational life skill. Implementing writing with combined incentives can help students see their mistakes as learning opportunities. Combing writing with creative prompts, games and rewards can transform from students thinking aboring task can turn into a challenge that will be fun.

Students learning to write will help them for real- life scenarios like, resumes, essays, and future emails.

This donation will help my students carry these skills beyond my class and they'll benefit from them throughout their education and into adulthood.
